Stealth Armor Systems Adds Shop Pay Installments — Body Armor Buyers Can Now Pay Over Time

Pay in 4 at 0% APR, or monthly plans from 3 to 12 months, available at checkout on every product at stealtharmorsystems.com/shop.

Pay Over Time — Shop Pay Installments now available on Stealth Armor Systems body armor

MISSOURI CITY, TexasStealth Armor Systems (SAS MFG Inc.), a U.S. manufacturer of flexible rifle armor and ballistic protection systems, today announced that Shop Pay Installments is live across its entire online catalog. Buyers can now split the cost of body armor into scheduled payments at checkout — no separate application process, no phone call, and no change to product pricing.

For the officers and individuals who most often buy their own equipment, cost — not availability — is the barrier. A properly fitted armor system with rifle-rated plates, side coverage, and a carrier is a meaningful purchase. Installments remove the requirement to absorb that cost in a single pay period.

What buyers get at checkout

  • Pay in 4: four interest-free bi-weekly payments at 0% APR.
  • Monthly plans: 3, 6, 9, or 12-month terms, with the customer's rate shown before they confirm.
  • Rates are set in real time by the financing provider based on the individual buyer's qualification, and are disclosed in full before any commitment.
  • No price difference. Installment and single-payment customers pay the same product price.

Available on the full catalog

Installments apply to every listing at stealtharmorsystems.com/shop, including Dragon Skin™ 2.5 flexible rifle plates, Hexar™ flexible rifle armor, Ultralite 3-A plate backers, side armor and trauma plates, BALCS and FirstSpear soft armor panels, LPACs for Mayflower Tactical carriers, the San Diego front-to-back wrap concealable vest, the Fortis Tactical Vest (FTV), and the Velox™ plate carrier.

Don't see it listed? Ask us to list it

Stealth Armor Systems builds a wider range of configurations than it lists online, including custom-sized panels and agency-specific builds. Customers who want a configuration that isn't on the storefront can request it be listed, and the company will publish a listing for it so the order can be placed — and financed — through the same checkout.

Agency purchasing is unchanged

Departments and agencies continue to purchase by quote and purchase order. Installments are a consumer-side option and do not affect government or agency terms, lead times, or pricing.

"For four decades I've watched good officers buy their own armor out of pocket and settle for less coverage than they need because of what they could pay that month. Splitting the payment doesn't change the armor — it changes who can afford the right armor."
